about

Have you ever tried to make someone fill the role of someone else? Have you ever missed somebody so much that you try to cram somebody else into that person's role?

lyrics

No wonder I fell so far from my home
Chasing you down wherever you'd roam
Tiger stripes fading with each moonless night
Trying so hard to make it feel right

It was so hard to get me inside you
But it was so easy to color you purple

Yeah you were easy
So easy to color purple

Moving too fast Moving too slow
I could never make up my mind
You were the key to a kingdom of Faeries
Whose door I would never find

You say you're sorry for letting me believe
And now I'm sorry I colored you purple

But you were so easy
So easy to color purple

about

Mayhem Lettuce Port Byron, Illinois

Mayhem Lettuce was formed in Port Byron, IL in 1993 when two sad teenage boys decided to channel their angst into music.
That music sits at the crossroads of King Missile and Portishead with a dash of The Cure and a pinch of They Might Be Giants.
